What is Embodiment & Program
The full program for the 2026 Embodiment Festival is not yet ready — our team is still weaving together a rich blend of music, movement, and creative experiences.
In the meantime, we invite you to explore last year’s 2025 program and get inspired by the variety of workshops, concerts, and gatherings that shaped the festival’s spirit.
Stay tuned — the 2026 program will be announced in spring 2026!
Morning sessions for kids
If your kids are between 3 and 10 years old, they will be busy with their own creative activities, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the morning workshops.
What is Embodiment?
Did you ever catch yourself thinking of your body as a tool to carry your head around? :) These days we explore a slightly different perspective: Letting our fantastic mind stay where it is while dropping down and into the wholeness of the body, seeing what that can mean for our well-being, sense of balance, way of orienting in life, healing, transformation and the way we act, are and relate in the world.
Embodiment shines light and invites awareness to the natural process of living, being, relating and acting through and as our beautiful bodies. You could say that the lens of Embodiment perceives the body as the ground which our human experience rests upon and where life expresses itself. It is a practice of self-awareness, self-regulation and sense-making through working with the relationship between body and mind. Involving practices such as being in-tune and in touch with our environment through our senses and connected to our internal physical sensations (such as bodily needs and emotions).
EMBODIMENT AS AN INVITATION
Embodiment invites us for awareness of sensations in our physical body, waves of emotions, and the movements of our mind as well as of the environment through our senses. It invites us to be present in our life: being right here and now.
We love how embodiment can hold space for listening, responding and learning from the messages, needs and wisdom of our own bodies. It supports us to move from understanding something into living it, such as a way of being or an inner quality.
Embodiment can help to move us away from objectifying our bodies into perceiving them as living organisms and give guidance towards our needs.
SOME EMBODIMENT GIFTS WE MIGHT BRING HOME FROM THIS FESTIVAL
Being present and grounded
Accessing our own life energy and become more vibrant, vital and spontaneous
Connecting with our feelings, as physical sensations, guiding us to our values and what is important to us. Making us able to orientate and act from an inner compass
Being with the flow of inner movements, (feelings, thoughts, sensations, energies) strengthening our “bodily container”, making ourselves more resilient to deal with and meet life
Becoming more sensitive to the messages and needs of our bodies: if we are stressed, relaxed, if we are hungry, too cold or hot, standing too close to someone, where our boundaries are, what we love, when our energy level is running out and we can be more accurate to point in how we respond and act
Enriching your lives with beauty, grace and creativity
Sense-making of our own behaviors and patterns, stepping out of our automatically responses and increasing our sense of freedom
Gaining insights and depth
Feeling at home and belonging
Connecting with others in an authentic way
Sensing ourselves to be part of the bigger body of nature
Becoming more conscious of our energy and how it moves in our system
